i am tapped into my bov. while reading this thread i was thinking about switching it but now i am unsure. is this the reason why i was having bad compressor surge with my forge bov no matter the adjustment i did. i eventually went back to stock bov to stop the surge. maybe if i go from the turbo nipple it will fix the surge issue and i can utilize my forge bov again.

Sourcing from the turbo outlet generally helps make boost more stable with less spike.

teh BOV. They both suck when its cold anyways. MBC are unstable in temperature changes and having an 02 housing makes it worse. Solenoids all the way...

Pressure is used to hold the BOV closed. MBC's have small bleed holes at least most that I know of. If you T into the BOV line then your bleeding off pressure that will be used to keep the BOV closed. Do you see whats going on?

Use either the nipple on the turbo/j pipe or remove pcv lines to vent to atmospher and use the intake manifold ex-pcv vacuum supply nippe as your boost source. But I recommend using the J pipe or turbo nipple what ever you want to call it.

I'm currently tee'd off the BOV, only because I'm running the BR LICP which doesn't have a fitting on it. I'll soon be switching to a vacuum distribution block for the boost gauge, BOV, and MBC.
